Abstract :
We characterize achievable rate regions of the butterfly network with noisy links and end-to-end error correction. We consider low-complexity relays, i.e., relays without the processing power to decode received signals. Decoding is done only at the destinations. Three decoding strategies are studied: independent, serial, and joint decoding.
